The Guardians are trying to make more good memories than bad at Target Field.
Cleveland Guardians vs. Minnesota Twins, May 13, 2022MINNEAPOLIS -- Ballparks hold memories not just for the home team but the opposition as well.
After the game Francona, amidst the spray of champagne and beer, said Danny Salazar would pitch the wild card game against Tampa Bay. At that time Salazar was a phenom, regularly hitting 100 mph. He went on to make the All-Star team in 2016, but injuries stole his electricity. His last year in Cleveland and the big leagues ended quietly in 2019. On Thursday, however, he signed a minor-league deal with the Yankees.
The comparison with Josh Naylor is easy to make. Naylor, playing right field on June 27, collided with second baseman Ernie Clement in pusuit of a short fly ball at Target Field. He suffered a fractured right leg and ankle. During the COVID season of 2020, when MLB reduced the season to 60 games, the Indians came to Minneapolis in August just after the start of the season. But there had been a COVID outbreak during the previous series and the clubhouse staff in the visitor’s locker room at Target Field was in quarantine.
Two years later COVID still won’t let go of the world’s population or baseball. Wednesday in Chicago, when the Guardians were preparing to play the White Sox,Manager Terry Francona, bench coach DeMarlo Hale, first base coach Sandy Alomar, third base coach Mike Sarbaugh, hitting coach Chris Valaika, assistant pitching coach Joe Torres and hitting analyst Justin Toole tested positive and didn’t make the trip to Minneapolis.
McDonald said he coaches some first base in spring training and in the minors when a staff members needs time.
